I am using the the Facebook Marketing API to upload offline conversions.
The attached code was working until about 2 weeks ago and now reports the following error.
{"error":{"message":"(#100) The parameter data is required","type":"OAuthException","code":100,"fbtrace_id":"HkpzkWB1I5g"}}
I don't understand why it should simply stop working after working as expected for so long. I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas?

Same thing just started happening here. Exact same problem. I had to play around for hours... But to get it working, I commented out
//"content-type: multipart/form-data",
and it started to work for me. Please let know if that also solves your problem.
